Suggestions

edit

Hi, this is a really interesting topic so I thought to share some ideas you could explore that came to mind. One was managing sensory experiences such as overstimulation or understimulation in neurodiverse populations to increase happiness. Technology use and being out of touch with our senses impacting our happiness (dissociation) could be another area to look into. You could also discuss mindfulness and mediation research that focuses on using the senses and why it is helpful.

Some articles I came across:

  1. Finck, C., Avila, A., Jiménez-Leal, W., Botero, J. P., Shambo, D., Hernandez, S., Reinoso-Carvalho, F., & Andonova, V. (2023).

  2. Brown, D. B., Bravo, A. J., Roos, C. R., & Pearson, M. R. (2015). Five Facets of Mindfulness and Psychological Health: Evaluating a Psychological Model of the Mechanisms of Mindfulness. Mindfulness, 6(5), 1021–1032. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12671-014-0349-4

Hopefully this was a helpful brainstorm, good luck with writing your chapter! U3229132 (discusscontribs) 05:20, 13 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Question

edit

Hiya,

Is sense-hacking weaponised through things like solitary confinement? Maybe discussing this sort of negative outcome of it could be interesting? U3249300 (discusscontribs) 12:07, 15 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hiya, one of the quizzes seems to have a stray link to an image that doesn't lead anywhere. I don't want to assume you didn't want the image there and overstep so I thought I would just let you know :'3 U3249300 (discusscontribs) 13:24, 4 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
